About the Artist

Beherit is a pioneering Finnish black metal band known for their raw and primordial sound that channels the darkest aspects of the occult and pagan mysticism. Formed in the late 1980s, they gained a cult following with their eerie atmospheres and aggressive riffs, blending sinister melodies with an unsettling intensity that transports listeners to a mystic, shadowy realm. Their performances and recordings, including tracks like "Salomon's Gate" and "Pagan Moon," evoke ritualistic and nocturnal evilistic themes, often reflecting a fascination with arcane and forbidden knowledge. The band’s approach is unapologetically abrasive and minimalistic, capturing the essence of early black metal’s underground ethos and creating an almost hypnotic, chilling experience feared and revered by fans. Their unique style has cemented them as iconic figures within the black metal genre, occasionally referenced for their unrelenting dedication to the dark arts and raw authenticity.
